    Musk hates democracy and the EU because they want to regulate twitter (and are generally one of the biggest pro-consumer forces), so if he supports someone in Europe they are probably on the side of weakening the EU and/or democracy.

      Yes, but in Turkey? Musk is usually motivated by personal gain and approval seeking so I’m not sure how Erdogan fits into this. Yes, he’s a right wing autocrat, like almost everyone else in the area. I guess it was just a matter of remaining compliant with local laws / authorities because they have shown they can disconnect Twitter when they want.
